Re: Weather protection

Still no sign of my bits, but the Comfort screen has arrived (ordered direct from BMW), contrary to the bumph on the description is isn't taller than the standard screen so we'll have to see how it works!

Did you get an ETA for them coming in? Rainbow couldn't even give me an invoice when I paid up :-~

Re: Weather protection

Can I infer from the PDF file that these parts are available for bikes up to 2013? Thanks, Bud Bud, These (below) may fit the pre-2014, looks like the left side exhaust in the image! http://www.rainbowbmw.com/wshop/Protection/R_1200_RT_Foot_and_Leg_Protectors-30830-002.html http://www.rainbowbmw.co...

Re: ABS Modulator issue

Re: ABS Modulator issue

Aye, seems strange that it can pass an MOT, but still be classed as a defect. A bit like tinted windows.

Re: Quiet today ?

Given the surprisingly mild temperature and the fact yesterday's rain cleaned the roads up quite a bit I went for a bimble, clocked up the 1000 mile marker  :)
I'm hoping for a new screen and a GS-911  ::)

I rem...

Re: Wunderlich Touring Screen for RTLC

Thanks for that, at 6'6" tall I need quite a bit more at the top of the screen to eliminate the wind noise! :-)
